Weeks in Korean can be used in sentences just like 일 (day) except that there are no other weird words to worry about. You use Sino-Korean numbers when talking about weeks:
저는 다음 주에 미국에 갈 거예요 - I will go to the US next week
지난 주에 저는 계획이 많았어요 - I had a lot of plans last week
The word "주" can also be used as a counter to count weeks. When counting weeks, just like when counting days, Sino-Korean numbers are used. When putting a number before "주," it doesn't matter if you use the word or the numeral. For example:
저는 2주 동안 한식을 안 먹었어요 - I didn't eat Korean food for 2 weeks
저는 4주 동안 여자친구를 안 만났어요 - I didn't meet my girlfriend for 4 weeks
저는 이 주 동안 한식을 안 먹었어요 - I didn't eat Korean food for two weeks
저는 사 주 동안 여자친구를 안 만났어요 - I didn't meet my girlfriend for four weeks
The word "주일" can also be used as a counter for weeks. This is acceptable, but it sounds a bit more natural to use "주" as shown above. For example:
저는 2주일 동안 한식을 안 먹었어요 - I didn't eat Korean food for two weeks
저는 4주일 동안 여자친구를 안 만났어요 - I didn't meet my girlfriend for four weeks
